9/16/1995 Update or Other Action CAPR; Reviewed files. Reviewed the HartCrowser Corrective Action Start Up Report, Anchorage Fire Department Station No. 4, Anchorage, Alaska" dated June 1995. GW flow direction based on 9/8/94 data is to the north-northeast. Up to 1.87 feet of floating free-phase liquid hydrocarbon was measured in MW-1. Recovery wells RW-1 and RW-2 were drilled in the vicinity of the former UST excavation in January 1995. No hydrocarbons were recovered from RW-2. Hydrocarbon thickness in MW-1 declined from a maximum thickness of 2.7 feet in mid-January 1995 to 1.3 feet in March. A decline of another foot between March and April 1995 occurred and was probably the result to rising ground water. No BTEX constituents were detected in GW samples for MW-3 or MW-4 in January 1995. No BTEX constituents or DRO concentrations were detected in GW samples for MW-2 or MW-4 in April 1995. Former Staff

3/1/2006 Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other The ADEC, CSP completed review of the HartCrowser "Groundwater Monitoring Report, Anchorage Fire Department Station No.4, 4350 MacInnes Street, Anchorage, Alaska" dated 7/22/04. In June 1994, one gasoline and one diesel USTs were removed from the site. Soil removal was limited by the excavations proximity to the Fire Station Building. A release investigation (RI) was completed following UST removal. Four groundwater monitoring wells were installed as part of the RI. Groundwater sampling identified free-phase petroleum product in the vicinity ofthe former UST's. Two product recovery wells were installed at the site in January 1995. Petrotrap passive hydrocarbon pumps were installed to collect free product. These pumps were operated through November 1996 and a total volume of 21 gallons ofhydrocarbons was recovered. The four monitoring wells were sampled quarterly during 1995 and 1996 and then semiannually in 1997 and 1998. No contaminants were found above regulatory levels in MW-2, MW-3a or MW-4. MW-1 exhibited free product during all sampling events. On May 25,2004, monitoring wells MW-1, MW-2, MW3a & MW-4 were rehabilitated and resurveyed to provide accurate elevation measurements. Free product and groundwater elevations measurements were collected. MW-1 continued to exhibit free product. Groundwater collected from MW-2, MW-3a & MW-4 did not contain any detectable contamination. Groundwater data has remained stable since installation of the monitoring wells in 1994. There has been no detections of contamination above regulatory levels in MW-2, MW-3a, or MW-4. Free-phase petroleum has been measured in MW-1 from the first sample collected following installation to date. Remaining contaminated soil can not be removed from the ground due to it's proximity to the Fire Station Building. David Pikul

11/28/2006 Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other Received and reviewed a copy of the HartCrowser report "AFD-4 Groundwater Monitoring, Anchorage Fire Department Station Number 4" dated 11/22/06. MW-3 was not sampled at all due to the presence of ~6" of puddled water above the access cap. No free phase hydrocarbons were found in MW-1, 2, or 4. However, the above average rainfall during August 2006 likely caused a rise in the water table that may have pinched off any free-phase hydrocarbons from entering MW-1. It is likely that some contaminated soils likely remain beneath the northeast corner of the building. MWs 1 and 2 were sampled on 9/18/06 and 10/11/06. MW-2 was ND for GRO, DRO, and Total BTEX. MW-1 was above cleanup level for GRO, DRO, and Total BTEX. The GW flow direction resulting from the 9/18/06 sampling was northeasterly. A Conceptual Site Model was submitted with the report as well. David Pikul
12/6/2006 Leaking Underground Storage Tank Corrective Action Underway Reviewed the Hart Crowser "Draft Remedial Action Plan, Former AFD Station Number 4; Anchorage, Alaska" dated 12/5/06. Sent a letter this date that conditionally approved the plan. Conditions include increasing the post-excavation soil samples to six and also including a duplicate. A potential for post construction monitoring of indoor air exists should site conditions indicate a completed vapor intrusion pathway. David Pikul

4/30/2007 Long Term Monitoring Complete The last of four monitoring wells was decommissioned this date. Bill Petrik
6/1/2007 Update or Other Action Received a letter this date from Alaska Soils Recycling (ASR) dated 5/30/07 indicating that ASR received 51.36 tons of petroleum impacted soil from this site. This soil will be co-mingled with soils of similar contaminants. Upon thermal remediation, these soils will be reintroduced into the construction industry as classified material. Due to this co-mingling at ASR there is no further action needed for this particular stockpile of contaminated soil. Bill Petrik

6/12/2007 Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other Reviewed the 5/14/07 HartCrowser "Remedial Action Report for AFD Station #4" received by the CSP on 5/16/07. The fire station structure is being expanded such that the apparatus bay will be located above the former UST excavation area. The primary exposure pathway of concern is upward migration of fuel vapors from the free-phase hydrocarbons and contaminated soil and GW from the subsurface into the building. Monitoring wells MW-1, RW-1 and RW-2 were removed and the soil in the vicinity of these MWs was excavated to expose the GW and free-phase hydrocarbons located within the former UST excavation. Approximately 230 cubic yards of material was excavated that was below 15 ppmV while approximately 45 cubic yards were excavated that were above 15 ppmV and stored on a liner for later removal to ASR. 100 pounds of ORC-A was placed into the GW within the excavation and another 50 pounds was placed in the smear zone just above the water table after soil was backfilled. The remainder of the excavation was back-filled with clean soils. No soil exceedances for GRO and BTEX except for 7.49 mg/kg ethylbenzene in sample S2-SW. DRO exceedances occurred in sample S2-SW at 2,350 mg/kg and in sample EX-1 at 7,160 mg/kg and its duplicate at 3,940 mg/kg. Bill Petrik
7/11/2007 Update or Other Action Latitude and longitude data gathered from TopoZone Pro Hi-Res Aerial Photo, Large Map, 1:2,952 scale, No Topo Base Map, NAD83 in conjunction with the Anchorage Area Atlas and a site map depicting both UST locations. High degree of confidence in the accuracy of the coordinates. Can only be improved with site GPS. Bill Petrik

11/29/2007 Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other The CSP reviewed the MOA "AFD-4 Excavation and Well Decommissioning" report dated May 14, 2007; the "AFD-4 Remedial Action Memorandum" dated June 27, 2007; and the "Updated Conceptual Site Model (CSM)" dated August 3, 2007. The CSP composed a letter and mailed it this date in response to review of these documents. The CSP requested completion of a subsurface soil gas sample beneath the slab floor in the area closest to the former location of MW-1. If the building is still in the construction phase it would be optimal to conduct the sampling after final construction is complete and before occupancy. A work plan to perform this work was requested to the CSP by January 31, 2008. Pending the outcome of potential vapor intrusion investigative work, the CSP reserves a determination for further ground water or indoor air vapor intrusion investigative work in the area of the former tanks and under the foundation nearest this point. Before site closure can be achieved a replacement monitoring well will need to be installed in the area of the former MW-1 and samples documented to be below the 18 AAC 75.345 Table C cleanup levels for DRO, GRO, and BTEX. In regards to the “clean” stockpile that was created during excavation activities on April 30, May 1 and May 9, 2007 that were segregated based on PID readings less than 15 ppmV, the CSP requested whether there were any samples of these soils taken and sent for laboratory analysis to determine any extent of potential contamination. If not, please explain why not and the rationale behind using 15 ppmv PID as a screening value. The responsible party (RP) was also requested to: supply PID readings for sampled soils as they were not listed in the reports; disposal receipts for the 275 gallons of free-phase hydrocarbons and ground water emulsion that were pumped into an on-site storage tank on May 1, 2007 and subsequently pumped out by Emerald Services for disposal; and update the CSM as site conditions change in the future. In accordance with 18 AAC 78.910 and 40 CFR 280.113 the RP is required to maintain financial responsibility (FR) until the tank has been properly closed as required by 18 AAC 78.085 and corrective action has been completed. Bill Petrik
5/16/2008 Underground Storage Tank Site Characterization or Assessment A conditional work plan approval letter for the Municipality of Anchorage Fire Station #4 was sent. The work plan is to determine whether a vapor intrusion issue exists for the building. Bill Petrik
8/18/2008 Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other The CSP performed a review of the Shannon & Wilson, Inc. "Request to Transport and Treat Impacted Soil and Water, Anchorage Fire Department Station No. 4, 4350 MacInnes Street, Anchorage, Alaska" dated August 15, 2008. The site has residual hydrocarbon contamination above cleanup levels remaining under and adjacent to old and new construction. A borehole was drilled and sampled and a subsequent monitoring well installed and sampled in an attempt to further characterize the soil and ground water with respect to potential vapor intrusion. High levels of GRO, DRO, and BTEX above cleanup levels were detected in soil and groundwater. Approval was granted to transport and treat the impacted soil and water. Bill Petrik

5/2/2014 Update or Other Action The CSP spoke with S&W on this day. S&W indicated that groundwater (GW) sampling was last performed in March 2014, and the next event is scheduled for July 2014. Following the final 2014 GW sampling events, a report will be prepared. Joshua Barsis
8/14/2014 Update or Other Action CSP spoke with fire station training specialist to determine if perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), which was used in the manufacturing of AFFF (PFOS-based AFFF) prior to 2003, was every used for firefighter training at this fire station. This fire station (including the use of fire fighting foam) has not been used for fire fighting training. Thus, it is unlikely that PFCs would be present in the soil or groundwater. PFOS/PFOA GW samples not required at this time. Joshua Barsis
11/3/2014 Institutional Control Record Established Institutional Controls established and entered into the database. Joshua Barsis
5/20/2015 Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other Reviewed the 2014 Semi-Annual Groundwater Monitoring Fire Station No. 4 report, dated for February 2015. The objective of this project was to collect groundwater samples from two groundwater monitoring wells (B1MW and B2MW) in February 2014 and again in July 2014. However, a water sample was not collected from B1MW during the February sampling event because free floating petroleum product was encountered. The product was subsequently soaked up with an absorbent pad. Both wells, B1MW and B2MW, were sampled during the July 2014 sampling event. Samples collected from Well B2MW did not exhibit any contaminant concentrations above ADEC groundwater cleanup levels. The sample collected from B1MW in July exhibited concentrations of gasoline range organics (GRO) at 138 mg/L, diesel range organics (DRO) at 18.1 mg/L, benzene at 7.69 mg/L, toluene at 29.7 mg/L, ethylbenzene at 2.40 mg/L, and xylenes at 15.6 mg/L, all of which exceed their respective groundwater cleanup levels. ADEC requested additional groundwater sampling before the end of September 2015. Joshua Barsis
6/27/2016 Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other Reviewed the Work Plan for Groundwater Monitoring, dated for June 27, 2106 for the MOA - Fire Station #4 site. Proposed activities consist of collecting water samples from four onsite monitoring wells (B1MW through B4MW). Sample analysis include GRO, DRO, RRO, and BTEX.

2/9/2022 Update or Other Action Per email from MOA/Maintenance & Operations dated 1/27/2022, the vapor barrier was installed, the red section is where the 15-mil liner was installed in area labeled as Apparatus 127 and 10 mil vapor barrier indicated as blue section, was installed in Apparatus 126, 128, and 135 (dormitory/Hallway area). See Figure 2021.01.27 VaporBarrierAirScrubbers in site file. MOA assumes that there is also 10-mil installed under the slab above the 15-mil liner to ensure that any moisture from the fill above the liner would be prevented from permeating the slab above. Also, heated slab in the apparatus bay was installed creating a 2” layer of rigid foam above the 10-mil vapor barrier. Since this is foamboard it may be considered a vapor barrier also. Eight air scrubbers were installed in the bay, however it would appear that they are activated by an optical sensor that would presumably see the truck exhaust. There is no record of any air quality sampling or performance testing done after scrubbers were installed. Jessica Hall
2/11/2022 Update or Other Action Sent email requesting the next steps from RP as follows:1.Please do another sampling event at B1MW. Please confirm if free product present, if present please demonstrate it is non recoverable. If no free product please sample for DRO, GRO, SVOCs, and VOCs per ADFG Appendix F for Diesel or Gasoline. 2.Please propose and submit a work plan for indoor air sampling in the dormitory location to confirm effectiveness of vapor barrier and scrubbers. 3.Please complete the building survey from vapor intrusion guidance, attached. 4.Please proceed with covenant process attached. The details of the approved covenant will be placed in the final closure letter and will need to be finalized before closure. 5.Please note that a well decommission plan will need to be submitted and wells will need to be decommissioned before closure.
